My school-run minibus: Hương's only way to earn a living

I make my living with my school-run minibus. 6 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $160. Without the vehicle I earn nothing. I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask. I support my two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked eleven hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four months if I can just get the vehicle working. I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $160 goes: • suspension replacement (parts): $80 • Labor charges: $50 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $25 • Towing and inspection: $5 Thanks for reading all this. - Hương
